Exploring Zhangjiajie’s wild s

Exploring Zhangjiajie’s wild side? Here’s the lowdown on Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park, and why it’s seriously next-level 🌄💨

Top Spots to Visit:
- Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park (Tianmenshan National Forest Park, Tianmenshan Cableway, Dayong Road, Yongding District, Zhangjiajie. Open: 07:30-19:00, last admission 16:00. Admission: ¥278)
- Hop on the famous Tianmenshan Cableway; it’s a wild 30-minute ride with insane views. The twisting mountain road below is a total showstopper—bring your camera for those “floating above the clouds” shots!
- Stroll along glass skywalks if you dare (tip: go early to beat crowds!). You’ll get that unreal combo of mountains, forest, and swirling fog.

My Insider Tip:
Seriously, prepare to be wowed. The winding road is one of the coolest things—zigzagging through peaks and lush forest, giving an epic overlook. Morning visits mean fewer crowds and mystical clouds rolling over the trees and ancient Chinese architecture. 🚶♂️ Don’t rush; wandering slow lets you soak in every incline and dreamy mist.

Travel Hack:
Getting there is easy—grab a taxi or public bus to Tianmenshan Cableway station. Buy tickets in advance on trip.com for best availability, then let the cableway do the heavy lifting!

Food:
Pack snacks—food up top is limited and pricey. Zhangjiajie city has spicy local eats if you want to refuel later (try ‘Sanxiaoguofu’ for local flavors!).

Key Destination Tips:
Weather can get foggy and cool, so layer up for mountain chills. Most prefer cash or Alipay—we found very little card acceptance at food stalls here.
